Happy December! It is also #GivingTuesday, so I hope you will consider donating to a cause close to your heart today – and any day. For me, that is No Kid Hungry. Any donation made today is matched by Kettle Brand and Hickory Farms.
On the subject of giving, Thanksgiving was such a loving and warm holiday.
I loved the cake we made for Thanksgiving dinner, the turkey was perfect and the leftovers made for delicious chutney sandwiches and salads.
Gathering around the table, laughing, cooking together.. that is what makes the holidays the best time.
The recipe for the sweet potato and parsnip gratin is coming up on the blog soon!

I have to admit, of all the themed days that come after American Thanksgiving, Giving Tuesday is my favourite.Today is also World AIDS Day, so my donation was to a local foundation.

I completely agree, Teresa! I just saw a piece on the news yesterday about the 92 St YMCA here in NYC (which is a great organization) and how that’s where Giving Tuesday originated.
